The first step in reaching a more mature SOA infrastructure is to accurately assess your organisation’s current level of SOA maturity in areas such as:
- Development and integration tools currently in use
- Overall IT architecture
- Degree of in-house development expertise
- Number of existing software components with services orientation
- Design and architecture of key software applications
- Level of alignment between business needs and existing IT services
Alphacourt offers separate assessments within each of these areas which are then brought together as a single report, providing a clear picture of your organisation's level of maturity on a sliding scale from 1 to 6, as shown in the table (left). From there Alphacourt can provide a set of Strategies and Road Maps for moving through the different levels of SOA maturity.
